And as things fell apart, nobody paid much attention.- Talking Heads

A shot from inside a cave looking out at the Mediterranean Sea. Snorkeling amongst some rocks near Damoni Beach on Crete, I saw this cave so I swam in. It was about 30 meters deep and I ended up in waist deep water. It was incredibly peaceful in there until I started thinking about snakes and freaked myself out. #landscape #greece #crete #Mediterranean #caves #snorkel Man, look at that swath of green water. Ever sea in Greece was that beautiful.

Never trust a merry prankster - Ken Kesey

Antelope Canyon on Navajo land. Slot canyon resembles a heart which the Merry Pranksters used heavily as iconography. Today I posted an AI pic accidentally. In 2 hours it had 5k likes and had been seen by who knows how many people. It sucked, but the people who called me out were largely nice about it. I deleted the post to stop the misinformation. Is that against the rules? I dunno. Is writing shit in here? Probably. I’ve been online since it became a thing. I hit my 14 year anniversary on Twitter this week. I’m no stranger to the ways of the net. What I am a stranger to is the wide range my posts have been getting for the last Month or so. It comes with a weird weight that I’m not super comfortable with. I mean, I’m glad people are enjoying the pictures I’ve taken, but moreso I wish to spread largely revolutionary quotes. It’s my nature. But it’s also my nature to be a bit of a fuck up. So you’ve been warned- never trust a merry prankster. #landscape #slots #Desert #canyons

On the central coast of California sits Morrow Rock, a sizable plop of granite and soil a ways out in the Pacific. The morning sunrise casts pink hues across the sky and water. I woke up with COVID on this day because suck ass Barber from the Disco Biscuits gave it to me as I stood at the stage the night before. Spit on me Barber.

Kandylakias litter the roads in Greece either commemorating a life lost on the spot, or one saved. They also serve as a guardrail that is noticeably absent on windy island roads.

This one is on the beach in Paleochora on Crete.

The size of a breadbox, this #kandylakia on the island of #crete in #greece is a small shrine. The waterside hill behind it was littered with tiny tea lights that came alive at dusk. #landscapes #mediterranean

The raddest fucking poster of all time infusing the Oregon Ducks with the Grateful Dead. I got to see Jerry a couple of times. Didn’t quite get it at the time, but I knew it was a place I wanted to be. Anyway, B4L. Barber has the torch now
